(As a thirty year resident of the region, I can say beyond a shadow of a doubt that NO ONE in a position of power in the state of California or the regional governments has given a flying f*ck about those decades long job losses until recently either).
Where do all the workers go when their jobs go away? Hard to say, but we DO know where the jobs themselves go

Justice MAY be done for the Native Americans. A few years back, a federal court ruled that the Department of the Interior DID owe money held in trust for a group of Native Americans stripped of their land which was then leased with the promise of remuneration. The court settled the claim for a seemingly arbitrary DOI calculated amount of $455.6 million despite Native claims of a value closer to $58 billion dollars. Today, the US Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia "vacated both orders and remanded for further proceedings, holding, "that while the district court's analysis of duty and breach are generally correct, the court erred in freeing the Department of the Interior from its burden to make an accounting.".
Expect a recount of the true worth of their land, hopefully sometime before the dominant American culture manages to assimilate the native culture entirely. More from Jurist Paperchase.
